Green leaves and colorful
flowers poking through that last bit
of snow means one thing spring!
Plant bulbs this fall and you’ll be
sure not to miss this early show,
advises extension agent, Jeff
Jabco. Spring-flowering bulbs
need a cold period to flower, and
fall planting provides this. Plan
ting in the fall also enables bulbs to
produce the roots they need to
properly nourish the leaves and
flowers.
Where can you plant bulbs?
Anywhere the soil is well-drained.
If the soil isn’t well-drained, the

bulbs can rot. If your soil is high in
sand or clay, add some peat or
other well-rotted organic material
and work it in to a depth of 12 to 18
inches. Add some bonemeal or a
general-purpose fertilizer to the
soil and work it in to give your
bulbs a boost for future years.
When you are ready to plant, you
can choose from two methods. One
is to dig an area large enough to
place a cluster of bulbs, the other is
to dig individual holes for each
bulb. Either way, large bulbs like
tulips, hyacinths, and daffodils are
planted 6 to 8 inches deep. The

What Is Sila-Prime?
smaller bulbs crocus, grape
hyacinth, and Scilla are planted
two to four inches deep. Set the
bulbs, pointed side up the flat
side is where the roots form
firmly into the soil. Then cover
with soil and water thoroughly.
The watering helps the bulbs start
forming roots right away. After
this, normal rain and snow should
provide adequate moisture. If dry
periods do occur, though, you’ll
need to water.
Covering your planted areas
with a mulch such as hay, bark,
leaves, or evergreen boughs will
help prevent the freezing and
thawing which can heave the bulbs
out of the ground. Remove the
mulch in spring when the shoots
are about 1 ot 2 inches tall. As you
plan your bulb planting scheme,
remember that bulbs look best
when clumped together for waves
of color. Plan to use the total
variety of bulbs available so you’ll
have bulbs flowering from late
February to May, and more
flowering from September through
late fall.
Some very early bulbs include
Eranthis (Winter Aconite),
Cluonodoxa (Glory of the Snow),
Scilla, and grape hyacinth. Crocus,
too, flower early, but somewhat
later than these others. Later
blooming spring bulbs include
tulip, daffodil, and hyacinth. Fall
flowering bulbs include Stern
bergia, Colchicum and Autumn
corcus.
Bulbs such as daffodils, crocus,
and Scilla give an added benefit.
Once planted, they will natuaralize
(meaning they multiply quite a
bit) so that their flowering display
will increase in years to come
with little effort on your part. A
visit to a garden center will
acquaint you with these and other
bulbs available. For the small
amount of effort needed, nothing
you plant will give you more
pleasure than bulbs, and
remember, fall is for planting!
